Playing to embrace diversity

On the occasion of the photographic exhibition Humanae, by the artist Angelica Dass, housed in the public space of the SNFCC, a number of workshops were held, which were designed and implemented by the artist Christina Tsinisizeli, inspired by the Humanae project. The workshops involved schools and families from the community and led the pupils to reflect on what skin colour means and to analyse their uniqueness, commenting on the diversity of people, without using labels or prejudices.

Students are surprised about how deep established stereotypes can be in our society and that it is necessary to reflect on them with critical thinking

About Humanae

Humanae is a photographic work in progress by artist Angélica Dass. Currently composed of almost 4,000 portraits from volunteers all around the globe, Humanæ pursues to document humanity’s true colors and bring up a critical reflection on the white, red, black and yellow false labels associated with race. The project does not select participants and there is no date set for its completion.  It is a journey of open-ended possibilities that enriches the way we see ourselves, beyond faces and colors. Nowadays, the artist has been doing portraits in 36 different cities and 20 different countries.
